Linux Want to practice Unix programming ...

Hi guys,

Is there any way to simulate unix commands on top of windows 7 64 bit ?
Please let me know if somebody has an idea.
I have a bit hands-on with the basic commands. But want to pick up shell scripting now.
So, i am looking for an option to practice at home.

Regards,
Vikram

I would suggest you install virtual box + xubuntu.
But if your ram is too low < 1GB then go for cygwin.

download VMware 7.0 and u need a iso of linux.

So make iso of linux which u want to install and create a machine in VMware.

Its easy. Just you should know linux installation :)
 
Just Untick the options from Cygwin hence its taking too long to download there are many things included with Cygwin
